Molecularly Imprinted Polymers as Interceptors of Bacterial Quorum Sensing: Design Principles, Translational Challenges, and Therapeutic Applications.
Review in ACS omega, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Quorum sensing (QS) orchestrates virulence, biofilm maturation, and antimicrobial tolerance across clinically dominant pathogens, driving chronic infections and therapeutic failure. Although quorum-sensing inhibitors (QSIs) were developed to attenuate pathogenic coordination without bactericidal pressure, their clinical translation has been constrained by biochemical instability, narrow receptor specificity, limited pharmacokinetic robustness, and emerging adaptive resistance. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) provide a mechanistically distinct strategy based on structurally defined recognition cavities capable of physically sequestering or catalytically degrading autoinducers with measurable thermodynamic parameters, including the imprinting factor (IF), dissociation constant (
